Chapter 165 Night Talk with the Dragon King
The heavy rain outside still didn't stop, but Xia Mi felt extremely quiet.
Lying on the soft big bed, she placed the back of her right hand on her forehead and stared at the ceiling above her head in a daze.
Everything that happened today had a great impact on her dragon life. The world changed so fast that she couldn't react at all.
It was fine that human society had undergone great changes in just a few hundred years, but how could even the society of dragons become so outrageous?
... To be honest, she couldn't figure it out.
It seemed that everyone was moving forward, but only she and Fenrir were left alone behind. This feeling... was quite bad.
The power displayed by Norton was obviously beyond the standard. It was not the power that a hybrid could display. Logically, the other party should be hunted down by hybrids all over the world, but the situation was completely different from what she thought.
The other party has a father who loves her, a sister who likes her, and friends and subordinates who care about her, while she only has her brother Fenrir. They are both dragon kings, so why is the other party doing better than herself?
Xia Mi sighed softly, as if she had thought of something.
She knew better than others how much the hybrids hated the dragons. The history of dragons had disappeared, and now the world was dominated by humans. Even if she was born with powerful power, she had to be careful to put away all her claws.
...Because the whole world is her enemy.
The last time she woke up was in 1626 AD. At that time, she had not had time to take a good look at this new world. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was attacked by a large number of hybrids.
Those people sneaked into her Nibelungen by some unknown means, and accurately predicted the time of their awakening. They prepared tons of mercury and tried to bury her and Fenrir again.
In the end, although they successfully released the Word Spirit Shiva Karma Dance to kill those people, they were seriously injured and had to shed their cocoons again, and were once again forced to fall into that long and seemingly endless sleep.
... It was like this almost every time.
Those haunting hybrids in black robes were always able to accurately find their sleeping places every time, and successfully invaded their Nibelungen, and then killed them again and again.
Death after death made her memory begin to become chaotic.
Now, she can no longer recall how she died when she was first pulled off the throne. She only knows that after that, she and her brother have been trapped in this nightmare of death.
Awakening, killing, shed their cocoons, death, sleep, awakening... It's like an Ouroboros with its head and tail connected, never ending.
It was precisely because of this painful lesson that after waking up this time, she had always been extremely cautious, carefully hiding her claws and blending into the crowd, not daring to show any of her own strength.
She thought that other dragon kings should be like her, but the facts in front of her poured cold water on her. It seemed that she was the only dragon king who was in a miserable situation...
Turning over in bed, Xia Mi buried her head under the pillow in melancholy.
Although this awakening was different from the past, those lingering black-robed people did not appear in front of them again, but she did not believe that those people would disappear in the long river of history.
In addition, human society changed too quickly, and many powerful weapons were designed, so since waking up, she has always had a sense of urgency in her heart.
In order to break the tragic fate of the past, she must have a strong power, but she would never devour her brother. She and him have been dependent on each other for thousands of years. How could she bear to give him to... Wait, could Norton have already swallowed Constantine?
Suddenly thinking of a possibility, Xia Mi's face changed slightly.
That kind of magical alchemy, maybe it is...
- Just then, a small knock on the door sounded from outside.
And along with the knock on the door, there was also a familiar voice coming from outside the door.
"Xia Mi, are you asleep? I have something to ask you, open the door~"
Xia Mi: "………"
………………………………………………
It is a blessing, not a disaster, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided.
Hugging the pillow and huddled in the corner, Xia Mi looked alert at the girl in front of her wearing the same pajamas as herself.
Ever since she came to the conclusion that the other party might have swallowed her brother Constantine, the other party has been like a flood and a beast in her eyes.
"Uh... do I look that scary?"
Looking at Xia Mi huddled in the corner in front of her, Mu Qingzhi subconsciously reached out and touched her cheek.
Originally, Shang Shanyue's arrival and the explanation of Lu Mingfei and what happened on the elevated road before were enough to make her tired. She wanted to take advantage of the dead of night to talk to someone, but she didn't expect that the other party would put on a trembling and fearless attitude towards her... Especially when she locked the door with a cautious look on her face.
... As the king of the earth and the mountains, can you have some backbone?
"Okay, it seems that you already know, so I won't hide it."
Looking at Xia Mi in front of her, sitting sideways on the bed, Mu Qingzhi slightly straightened her throat.
"That's right, it's just as you thought. I'm going to show my cards now. I won't pretend anymore. I am the legendary King of Bronze and Fire, Norton."
"...Ah?"
Having never expected that the other party would suddenly do this, Xia Mi opened her mouth in bewilderment.
"What? Shouldn't you come to see the king?"
Mu Qingzhi frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
"Don't pretend. I've recognized you. You are actually a dragon, right? And a second-generation species hidden among humans. I am a noble first-generation species, and one of the four great kings. After I revealed my identity, shouldn't you immediately come to express your submission to me?"
Xia Mi: "..."
...You are the second-generation species!!!
"Norton?"
The many emotions on her face disappeared without a trace. Looking up at the girl in front of her, Xia Mi had a blank expression on her face.
"Norton's character is tyrannical, not as bad as you."
"When you meet someone after three days, you should look at him with new eyes. If you always remember a person with your old impression, it will lead to serious deviation."
Raising a finger in front of her and shaking it, Mu Qingzhi was serious.
"If I have to say, I still think you are different from what I remember. Hun King Alati, the embodiment of lust, wielding the Whip of God under his crotch has infinite..."
"You are lustful!! You are lustful!!!"
Before Mu Qingzhi finished her words, the expression on Xia Mi's face suddenly couldn't be held, and she threw the pillow in her arms without thinking.
"What Hun King Whip of God? Fenrir and I have never had this experience!! Don't apply the unofficial history you heard from somewhere to us!!!"
She figured out that the guy in front of her was just here to tease her... Is this how you understand the Whip of God! ?
...She seemed to understand why the other party's alchemy was so weird.
PS: Good morning (づ●─●)づ
I think Jörmungandr's gender should not have changed.
In the Well of Annihilation in Dragon II, the boss said to Xia Mi: "You are as beautiful as before." It's impossible to say that a man is beautiful, right?
